Shreemant Dagdusheth Ganpati Darshan through Augmented Reality

Yes! you have indeed read it correctly. Through augmented reality, you can really have a “Virtual” darshan of your beloved Dagdusheth Ganpati sitting at your home.

The current pandemic – Covid protocols were curbing peoples enthusiasm for celebrating the Ganesh festivals to the fullest potential. Restrictions on visiting temples, no festivities during this festival has in a way disheartened and disappointed followers across the state.

To combat these issues, this year Shreemant Dagdusheth Halwai Ganpati, Pune has introduced an augmented reality-based feature of bringing the favourite “Bappa” directly to your home.

This marker-based augmented reality-based web application can be accessed through any camera-based internet-enabled devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops etc., This came as a great surprise for me. As a strong believer of experiential reality in making our life easier in the coming days. It is literally heartening to see the temples using such technological advancements to their fullest potential.

Here are the steps to access this augmented reality-based content:

1. You would need to open the given link through your smartphone. https://www.dagdushethganpati.net/
2. Click on – Click above CTA provided in the web application
3. Scan the flat surface through your camera
4. The marker-based program scans the flat surface and places a 3D model of Bappa in users own reality
5. The application also provides background music of Dagdusheth Ganpati’s Aarti for users to perform individual

Let the god of wisdom bless us all.

Ganpati Bappa Morya!
